Split request for 400IM

Speedo
I just wanted to see what folks' thoughts were on getting an offical 100 fly split during a 400IM? The 100 fly and free (2 of my focus events) are consecutive events at my next meet, but the 400 IM is a bit later in the day and I'd have some time to rest between events if I were to get a split for the 1st 100 fly. I'd just have to concentrate on not getting DQ's while warming down on the last 300. Has anyone done this- any thought on the plan? Thanks in advance.

See 103.13.2, page 24, which lists the fly leg of the IM as an example and also see 103.13.1, page 24, and 105.2.2, page 38. The swimmer could get a 50 fly time and a 100 fly time from the 400 IM, and both could count as official times for USMS records and Top 10 if the swimmer completes the 400 IM without being disqualified and the times are recorded by fully automatic timing. Kathy Won't work, you're swimming an IM & not a butterfly event I don't believe the split will count. Ask Kathy Casey, USMS rules chair for confirmation ande
